Basically, it's all well and good until you get a situation that has Darth Vader being 'killed' by a lowly rebel trooper with a pistol and then it ruins As in Luke, Vader, Yoda, Leia, Boba Fett, Ewan McGregor and that blue bird with the long head tentacles. Big Name Starsīattlefront II is pretty much everything we saw first time round, but with Episode III levels and some space bits.
Justice? Not a factor in the games business, matey. Bland, devoid of character, asinine gameplay mechanics, clumsy implementation and, at the time of writing, number one in the charts with a bullet.
Even those that look quite good at first very rapidly outstay their welcome once the novelty wears off. KOTOR aside, and maybe Republic Commando, there hasn't been a good Star Wars game since Dark Forces. Which wouldn't be so bad if the games were actually deserving of their successes. People buy Star Wars toothbrushes for god's sake. Actually, that's the power of marketing, hype and a licence that guarantees cash rewards for anyone lucky enough to wield it Honestly.
